World's Most Expensive Dessert

Have you got $25,000 to spare? Well, you might want to splurge it on this.

It's called the "Frrozen Haute Chocolate," which is a blend of 28 cocoas, including 14 of the most expensive and exotic from around the world.

The dessert, spelled with two Rs, is infused with 5 grams of edible 23-karat gold and served in a goblet lined with edible gold. At the base of the goblet is an 18-karat gold bracelet with 1 carat of white diamonds.

The sundae is topped with whipped cream covered with more gold and a side of La Madeline au Truffle from Knipschildt Chocolatier, which sells for $2,600 a pound.

It is eaten with a gold spoon decorated with white and chocolate-colored diamonds, which can also be taken home.

Outrageous, eh? Even if I did have to extra cash to blow off on this very "rich" dessert, I don't think I would waste my money on such an extravagance. I'd rather buy my family and myself plane tickets and have a long, well-deserved holiday with more than enough pocket money to spend. But, hey, that's just me. :)

Even though it probably would be really tasty dessert, it just wouldn't be worth it. There are more things that you can spend that money on besides a dessert that will be eaten once.
